Hey,
Just installed my 1st bridge with docker.
Because of bug, the command from docs doesn’t working for me:

root@*:/home/tor# docker exec 2abf576a415f get-bridge-line
Could not create bridge line. Tor's log format may have changed. This is a bug.

I found an issue in project gitlab, so ok, lets do it manually.
I went into container:

docker exec -it 2abf576a415f bash
cd /var/lib/tor/pt_state
cat obfs4_bridgeline.txt

And got this line:
Bridge obfs4 <IP ADDRESS>:<PORT> <FINGERPRINT> cert=****** iat-mode=0
Next I checked out tor logs:

Tor 0.4.6.8 running on Linux with Libevent 2.1.12-stable, OpenSSL 1.1.1k, Zlib 1.2.11, Liblzma 5.2.5, Libzstd 1.4.8 and Glibc 2.31 as libc.

You are running a new relay. Thanks for helping the Tor network! If you wish to know what will happen in the upcoming weeks regarding its usage, have a look at https://blog.torproject.org/blog/lifecycle-of-a-new-relay
It looks like I need to generate and sign a new medium-term signing key, because I don't have one. To do that, I need to load (or create) the permanent master identity key. If the master identity key was not moved or encrypted with a passphrase, this will be done automatically and no further action is required. Otherwise, provide the necessary data using 'tor --keygen' to do it manually.
Your Tor server's identity key  fingerprint is 'DockerObfs4Bridge ***'
Your Tor bridge's hashed identity key  fingerprint is 'DockerObfs4Bridge ***'
Your Tor server's identity key ed25519 fingerprint is 'DockerObfs4Bridge 38/***'
You can check the status of your bridge relay at https://bridges.torproject.org/status?id=***
Bootstrapped 0% (starting): Starting
Starting with guard context "default"
Registered server transport 'obfs4' at '[::]:18500'
Unable to find IPv4 address for ORPort 18799. You might want to specify IPv6Only to it or set an explicit address or set Address.

My questions are:
Which of these are my PORT and FINGERPRINT for bridgeline?
What is 40303 port? Is it static for all future bridges I’ll run? Should I allow this port in my firewall rules?

Are you running the latest docker image? This is an issue that we solved three weeks ago:

ivv · December 14, 2021, 1:23pm

Docker-compose file from guide is configured to use thetorproject/obfs4-bridge:latest so I think it’s the latest docker image.

rEsIsTaNcE · December 14, 2021, 2:26pm

All other servers deleted.

Hello everyone!
Campaign update: the Golden Gate Kit is totally gone now!
If you’ve deployed 10 bridges till today (December 16 2021, 1900 UTC) you’re classified to get a Golden Gate Kit, which means if your bridges is running and online, you will get your kit as described on the blog post.

I’m testing all your bridges and checking its availability. It’s important to keep your bridges online and running. The other kits are still available. Thanks everyone!

I’m happy to help Tor. So far, I have created 2 bridges that run 24/7. I care about anonymity and private users. I hope to get these things over time.

Hi, setup two bridges so far and also running a middle relay. Feels good to play my small role in this fight which I am sure i don’t get the full scale of.

keen · December 27, 2021, 12:54pm

Hi! I just joined the tor project and started my first bridge about a week ago:
10140C4EA056A81FC4CA3CEA941361F1FC5FD7BF

In the past, I’ve often thought about running a relay to support privacy via the tor network but never got around to it. For me, finding the docker container for an obfs4 bridge made setup and especially maintenance a lot easier, thanks for this. I’m happy to contribute some bandwidth, even if only in a small way. Happy holidays and all the best for 2020!
